Bria's Baptism

So many first and exciting things when you have kids!

Last weekend we got Bria baptized and it was my first Mother's Day!

Brian actually gave me my Mother's Day gift on Thursday because we had family here all weekend to help Bria celebrate!

My Gift. I love it!!! :)

Saturday afternoon Uncle Dustin, Aunt Jodi, cousin Connor, Uncle Jordan, Aunt Amy, cousin Colton and Grammy and Papa all came over to Wakefield to hang out and have dinner. Daddy, Uncle D and Uncle Jordan even went fishing for a little while before it started to rain.

Then on Sunday we all got up and around and headed off to the Mizpah United Methodist Church outside of Wakefield. There your Grandma and Grandpa Sturges and great-grandma mammy met us for church.

Luckily they did the baptism fairly early in case you got cranky or fell asleep. You did pretty well and you like water so I think that helped with the pastor putting it on your head. After Church some Women of the Church had Punch and Cookies for us in the fellowship hall for us to celebrate. After that we all headed up and went to eat lunch at Nelson's Landing.

It was nothing to big or exciting but you are now baptized and had a fun weekend doing it!

Also, on Mother's day you started taking a few steps. You get excited and fall down but you are starting to get pretty good. I am expecting you to be walking before your first birthday! You also finally said mama but you haven't really don't it since then, but I will take it!!!

We love you baby girl!!!

Bria- 10 Months




Baby girls was 10 months old May 2, 2015. I can't believe she will be 1 in 2 months! 
We didn't have a check- up this month but I would guess you are still only about 20lbs. You are still wearing size 3 diapers but your clothes vary anywhere from 6 months-12 months clothes. It is a good thing you don't like wearing shoes because we can't find any to fit your little fit. Mom has bought a few for you because they were too adorable not too but they look like clown shoes on you.

Mom and dad started making you a play room in the basement. So far it has foam flooring and a wall painted with chalk board paint. Eventually we will do something with the rest of the walls because they are gross, but for now it houses your toys so the living doesn't look like a toy store exploded. 

This coming weekend you will be baptized and mom's first Mother's day. 

Other than that we will have busy weekends the rest of May, then June should be fairly calm and then your 1st birthday will be here!

We love you so much baby girl!
